SHORTPOD (27): POLARISATION AND HYSTERIA AS EXPRESSIONS OF CIVILISATIONAL DECAY

Affirmative Right Chief Editor Colin Liddellcomments on the growing polarisation and hysteria in the West, as revealed by the recent struggle over Brett Kavanaugh's elevation to the Supreme Court.

Liddell argues that the shrill emotionalism from both the Right and the Left are essentially crude attempts to regain an "understanding" of the World. These are inevitable responses to civilisational decay and our inability to now relate to the world socially and collectively through trusted elites, complex myths, and a sophisticated, nuanced culture.
